It seems every two days, another “event” has tested our resolve, romanticists included. After the icy images of Part One, the expression on this forlorn squirrel, above – “weathering” a lull at about 8 deg. F (-15 deg. C,) only hints at what was about to come. And he already shows the scars of this winter’s relentless play.
Below: Some 22 hours later, heavy snow is falling on top of existing layers of snow – ice – snow – ice, distributing dangerous weight,
…and continuing into the night.
The icicle reveals some heating loss from our house…
And Sandy Paws (remember her?) navigates the frozen turf, as the brilliant sun spotlights natures latest work.
Alisa’s Travel ThemeΒ this week is “Romance”
Nice pictures. I especially like the one of the icicle:) Oh..and the squirrel:)
Thanks, Mitzie. Wish I were in Dubai!
How recent is this? Hopefully warmer weather gets here soon!

Sounds about like us. Planning to go snow tubing next Tuesday night, but after that I’m ready for spring!
Goodness M, you have had so much snow! Love your snow pics, and the darling squirrel. Hope things thaw out for you soon π
Thanks, a warm spell is promised starting tomorrow!

You have managed to make our ugly weather look beautiful!

how incredible it seems to me … I can’t believe how high those walls are along the path, and poor SandyPaws with her cold feet … hope a little warmth arrives soon π
She doesn’t spend much time out there in this weather, charging for the door when she’s finished!
I’ve never seen her run back into the house so fast! M
